I knew nothing about persimmons so I had to look them up, it's a good thing I did because they are very bitter if you don't let them ripen fully. Well now I'm hooked they are so sweet and delicious. Today I had them with greek yogurt and nuts and berries.I also tried my newly acquired Paleo Bread from <span class="userContent"><a href="http://julianbakery.com/locator" rel="nofollow nofollow" target="_blank">http://julianbakery.com</a>. I bought Coconut and Almond, I had the coconut (toasted) with my fruit yogurt. Delightful breakfast.</span><br />

A used to be neighbor and friend made these lovely bowls and let me pick some out to keep, so when I made my primal mousse I had to use this one. I got the recipe from: <a href="http://www.cavemanbistro.com/">http://www.cavemanbistro.com</a>. I followed it to a T, and it was wonderful. P.S. I think the bowl made it all the more special.Ke Keiki's Primal Adventurehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17284575025313146524noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868563146668522342.post-51156267979592017032011-06-09T00:23:00.000-07:002011-06-09T00:23:15.640-07:00Ribs I had decided to have ribs for Memorial Day, and thought, you can't have ribs without potato salad. That would be fine for the family, but maybe I could fix sweet potato salad for myself. What! No sweet potatoes? I did have some butternut squash, why not? Hence, my butternut squash salad was born.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>For the Ribs</i>:<br />
I took so long picking out the sides I was running out of time. I decided to Pressure cook the ribs with a dry rub and then put them under the broiler for about 10 minutes. They were awesome and so tender.<br />

I cubed and steamed the butternut squash, and hard boiled an egg, while they were cooking I whipped up some mayo. Then I mixed it together with a little pickle relish and some salt and pepper.<br />

1 egg or 1 egg yolk (I used the whole egg)<br />

Add egg, ¼ cup bacon drippings, vinegar, dry mustard, salt/pepper to blender or food processor. Turn the machine on and slowly pour the remaining fat/oil into the container in a thin, even stream. Too thin? Add more oil. Too thick? Add a little water. Cover and refrigerate up to 1 week.<br />

One afternoon I had the uncontrollable urge to make some cookies and began searching for a recipe when I stumbled across one from <a href="http://www.marksdailyapple.com/forum/thread8874.html">"Mark's Daily Apple"</a> .It was from a member named tabithatoes. Thank you Mark's Daily Apple an Tabithatoes. This is the recipe I used and modified.<br />

<br />
* I used 2 tbs. of maple syrup in place of the honey<br />
* I used walnuts in place of the pecans<br />
I also added 1/4 cup unsweetend coconut<br />
and 1/4 c of 60% dark chocolate chips<br />
<br />
These were phenomenal and you can find the original recipe and nutritional facts on <a href="http://www.marksdailyapple.com/forum/thread8874.html">"Mark's Daily Apple".</a><br />

She served a very Primal meal of Lamb, Charoses, roasted veggies, primal hummus and salad with tahini dressing. I baked some savory crackers as a replacement for the matzot, although we served traditional matzot for all the guest that were not primal. Here is the recipe I used:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Herbed Almond Crackers </b></span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;"> grain free, gluten free & paleo!</span></b></span></div><ul style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">2 cups almond meal</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">1/2 teaspoon sea salt</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">2 tablespoons of za'atar* or your favorite blend of herbs or spices</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">2 tablespoons water</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">1 egg white</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Kosher salt for sprinkling, optional </span> </li>
</ul><ol style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Combine almond meal, salt, za'atar, and sesame seeds in a medium mixing bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together water, egg white, olive oil, and sesame oil. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until a stiff dough forms and all dry ingredients are moistened. </span></div></li>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper and roll out to an even thickness of about 1/8 inch. Transfer parchment-covered dough to a sheet pan and remove the top piece of parchment. Use a pizza wheel or a pastry wheel to trim the uneven edges of the dough, then cut the sheet of dough into cracker-size squares. </span></div></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">If desired, sprinkle crackers with kosher salt and place in oven. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes. Turn off oven and let crackers sit inside oven for an additional 10 minutes, until golden. Remove baking sheet from oven and let crackers cool completely before storing in an airtight plastic container. </span> </li>
</ol><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Recipe Notes</b></span></div><ul style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">You can purchase almond meal (also called almond flour) or make your own. To make it, just process blanched whole or slivered almonds in a food processor until finely ground. Do not overprocess or you'll end up with almond butter. </span></div></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Za'atar* is a wonderful Middle Eastern spice blend made up of roasted thyme, sesame seeds, sumac, and salt. I purchase mine loose, from a bulk jar, at the health food store. If you purchase it prepackaged, checked the ingredient list carefully ~ some brands may include wheat flour. </span> </li>
</ul><div align="CENTER" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices. Chili, curry, rosemary, herbes de</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Provence, and cumin are all good choice.</span></div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
